Blue cheese tart, Grandad’s chicken, catfish, collards… Great addition to the Denver dining scene. And always excited to see good people doing great things.

So..... its a cute spot don't get me wrong, and maybe its just what we ordered (Chicken, Pork Shoulder, Catfish Dip)...but the food was not good.
Especially when you compare the food itself to what's at offer in other restaurants in the area. The staff was sweet, and the vibe was great, but the food was just...... not... it.
I left confused and disappointed.

Everything was so amazing. The best service. The sesame crackers with the pimento cheese were so good. The cocktails, catfish, tart, and chicken on a stick were also amazing!! I can’t wait to order the whole menu. And they serve food late night. My gawd.

We were so excited to try Rougarou, and it truly exceeded our expectations. The service was a delight, the environment is elevated but very approachable and lively, and the food…the FOOD!! So good! We especially loved the benne rolls, the sea island red peas, the collard green salad, and — my favorite — the sorghum sundae. Rougarou is really a wonderful and welcome new addition to Denver’s food scene, and I can’t wait to come back.

Absolutely stunning meal. Incredible flavors and value. The decor was so vibrant and welcoming while still being classy. Every dish was so flavorful. The collard greens salad was a standout. The creole tofu was super flavorful. I can only assume the meat dishes are good too but we did all veggie. Highly recommend for vegetarians or vegans.

Rougarou is an incredible new spot in Five Points from the team behind Yacht Club. The food celebrates the American South with creative, elevated dishes. The highlights included the blue cheese tart, Granddad’s chicken, and benne seed rolls. The cocktails were phenomenal, as expected from this crew.
A perfect mix of Southern soul and Denver cool. Highly recommend making a reservation as this place is already in high demand!

GO TO ROUGAROU!!! This is the best meal I’ve had in a LONG time in Denver. Their menu is so unique and like no other restaurant in town. Every bite I took was incredible and full of flavor. Every cocktail was perfectly balanced. Excellent wine list. I highly recommend Rougarou. You’ll be blown away!
Delicious meal from start to finish. The service was impeccable. Atmosphere was perfect. Best new spot in Denver

ARE YOU KIDDING ME !!!! Thank you to Joe, Sebastian and Jake for extremely kind and attentive service. Get the boiled peanuts! Get the chicken with white sauce! Serving food and playing music this good, this late, is a public service. Go here! Will be back!

Incredible atmosphere, food, and drinks. And they got that good hot sauce. We tried the catfish, granddads chicken, rolls, grits, and broccolini. I had a champagne killer. Everything was perfect, service was excellent. Just go!

We had a fantastic date night at Rougarou. The food was delicious and often surprising, and our server Pete was friendly and made sure we tried some of the must haves. Definitely will be back!
